American Comics: BOSS Invasion
#323 - Hunt
As the car entered the courtyard, Caliban was outside taking in the laundry.
He was wrapped up like a rice dumpling, with only his eyes showing.
Speaking of which, he wasn't having an easy time either; in this "family of three," he had been constantly playing the role of the mother, wholeheartedly serving the elderly Charles without complaint.
Wolverine led the woman and the little girl out of the car.
"Canada!"
Opening the iron gate, the group walked inside.
The interior was dimly lit, with piles of junk and old furniture.
The glaring sunlight from outside shone in, but was blocked by several thick curtains, making the room feel somewhat oppressive.
The Mexican woman said nervously, "Logan, we're short on time. Why aren't we hitting the road immediately? You should know they're hunting us and could find us here at any moment!"
Logan gave the woman a cold look.
"Shut up. I need to get some things! I can't just abandon my friends and leave!"
At this moment, Caliban pushed Charles out.
The old man saw Laura at a glance, and his whole body began to tremble. He said excitedly, "Logan! Logan, you found her! She's the new mutant, a brand new hope…"
The old man's hands trembled with excitement.
Caliban's eyes lit up.
Logan, however, was expressionless. Ever since he was stabbed a few times by the little girl yesterday, he already knew.
Even now, he still didn't know how to express his emotions.
Hope had appeared too suddenly, creating a sense of illusion that made it hard to believe it was real.
"Charles, calm down…"
"Charles? Oh, God, are you Professor X? The news said you died in the West a year ago."
The Mexican woman suddenly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief, so excited she was about to cry.
Old Charles smiled and said, "He's not wrong. I am indeed dead. I died twenty-five years ago. But after seeing her today, I think I've come back to life!"
"Good heavens, it really is you. No wonder Logan appeared in Mexico!"
Caliban suddenly asked, "How did you find Logan?"
The woman said, "There were rumors that someone who looked very much like Wolverine was driving a car in the borderlands of Mexico."
"Rumors?" Caliban's eyes widened.
Wolverine said calmly, "This is precisely why we need to evacuate as soon as possible. Even nurses from internal research facilities, people who hardly have any contact with the outside world, can hear news about me, which means we were exposed a long time ago.
There's no time to delay. Sentinel Services could show up at any…"
Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud crash outside, as the large iron gate slammed to the ground, followed by several troop carriers slowly driving in.
Some soldiers spread out around the perimeter, each fully armed, holding special firearms, forming an infantry-tank coordinated advance.
The group inside the room was stunned. Wolverine rushed to the window and took a look, his expression changing drastically. He turned around and shouted, "Quick, leave through the back door! Get in the SUV that's already prepared. Caliban, you drive and evacuate along the route we planned."
Before his voice faded, Wolverine charged out the front door.
The Mexican woman's body trembled uncontrollably, and she suddenly hugged Laura tightly.
"They're here. They're here again! Professor X, please! Please take Laura to a safe place! You're the only one who can save her now!"
Charles comforted her, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Logan will handle everything. We'll evacuate first, and he'll be along soon!"
Caliban didn't wait for Charles to finish speaking before pushing him towards the back.
He wasn't a combat type; his abilities were only tracking other mutants and having a keen sense of smell.
He had no power to resist firearms.
Although Charles's abilities were strong, he now suffered from dementia. Even in a non-attack state, he couldn't easily use his abilities, otherwise it could easily cause systemic convulsions and indiscriminate attacks.
Reminded, the woman also reacted and quickly pulled the little girl along to follow.
In front, a large number of soldiers formed a defensive line, slowly advancing.
Roar!
A roar came from overhead. As soon as a few soldiers looked up, Wolverine flew down, and the claws in his hands pierced through the center of their foreheads.
After pulling them out, he didn't stop, charging down at another person.
Blood splattered in the air. With Wolverine's movements, a large number of soldiers were injured and fell to the ground.
Firearms were cut apart, arms and hands were chopped off, and some were even unlucky enough to have their spines severed, screaming in agony.
Wolverine moved quickly, creating a pile of corpses in less than five seconds.
The soldiers were so frightened that they couldn't help but retreat backward.
Several jeeps mounted with heavy machine guns rushed up, their gun barrels spewing flames.
With a sound like muffled thunder, one massive, pointed bullet after another shot out of the gun barrels, turning Wolverine into a hornet's nest in the blink of an eye.
The impact of the bullets pierced through Wolverine's flesh, hitting the makeshift house behind him and turning the walls into honeycomb briquettes.
In less than half a minute, the house collapsed with a crack.
Wolverine seized this fleeting opportunity, darting backward and disappearing into the smoke and dust.
